The Enlightenment Under the Sacred Bodhi Tree

This exquisite brass statue captures the pivotal moment of Siddhartha Gautama's enlightenment, a profound event that gave rise to Buddhism. Seated in a meditative pose beneath the protective branches of the Bodhi tree, the Buddha radiates an aura of profound peace and wisdom. The Bodhi tree itself is a symbol of immense significance in Buddhist tradition. It is believed to be the very tree under which Prince Siddhartha meditated for days, ultimately attaining enlightenment and becoming the Buddha, meaning "the awakened one." The depiction here, adorned with vibrant, inlaid stones representing leaves and fruits, evokes the lushness and life-giving energy of this sacred site.

A Symbol of Inner Peace and Spiritual Awakening

The Buddha's posture, known as the

Abhaya Mudra

(fear-not gesture) with his right hand raised, signifies protection, blessing, and the dispelling of fear. His left hand cradles a bowl, often representing alms or the essence of his teachings, symbolizing compassion and the acceptance of all. The intricate detailing of his robe, embellished with colorful inlays of turquoise, lapis lazuli, and carnelian, adds a touch of regal beauty and reinforces the preciousness of the spiritual treasure he has attained. The base of the statue, also richly decorated with geometric patterns and inlaid stones, provides a stable and ornate foundation, further emphasizing the divine presence.

Mythological Resonance and Artistic Craftsmanship

The presence of the two birds perched on the branches of the Bodhi tree adds another layer of cultural and mythological context. In various traditions, birds are often seen as messengers or celestial beings, their presence suggesting a divine presence or the auspiciousness of the moment. The meticulous inlay work, a hallmark of skilled craftsmanship, transforms the brass into a vibrant tapestry of color and texture, making this a truly captivating piece. The combination of the serene Buddha and the richly adorned Bodhi tree creates a powerful representation of spiritual awakening, inner peace, and the enduring legacy of Buddhist philosophy. This statue serves not only as a beautiful decorative item but as a constant reminder of the path to enlightenment and the profound tranquility that can be found within.

How to keep a Brass statue well-maintained?

Brass statues are known and appreciated for their exquisite beauty and luster. The brilliant bright gold appearance of Brass makes it appropriate for casting aesthetic statues and sculptures. Brass is a metal alloy composed mainly of copper and zinc. This chemical composition makes brass a highly durable and corrosion-resistant material. Due to these properties, Brass statues and sculptures can be kept both indoors as well as outdoors. They also last for many decades without losing all their natural shine.

Brass statues can withstand even harsh weather conditions very well due to their corrosion-resistance properties. However, maintaining the luster and natural beauty of brass statues is essential if you want to prolong their life and appearance.

The best and simplest way to maintain a brass statue is to clean it at least twice a week using a soft cloth or cotton rag. This will prevent dust from accumulating on the surface. Dusting is especially important for outdoor statues since it is prone to dust accumulation much more than indoors.

To give a natural shine and luster to the statue, you may apply coconut or olive oil using cotton on every portion. You can use a toothbrush to get to the small crevices but do not be too harsh. This will make the brass statue appear fresh and new with a polished look.

In case you have a colored brass statue, you may apply mustard oil using a soft brush or clean cloth on the brass portion while for the colored portion of the statue, you may use coconut oil with a cotton cloth.

Brass idols of Hindu Gods and Goddesses are especially known for their intricate and detailed work of art. Nepalese sculptures are famous for small brass idols portraying Buddhist deities. These sculptures are beautified with gold gilding and inlay of precious or semi-precious stones. Religious brass statues can be kept at home altars. You can keep a decorative brass statue in your garden or roof to embellish the area and fill it with divinity.
